Zones + ZFS ~= Virtualisation Perfection! Zones is the way to go, there so easy to set up, rock solid and the way they partition resources is unparalleled by any other virtualisation framework. After ZFS, I'd say zones are second best feature of Solaris. IMHO it's worth finding the right web, mail and jabber/xmpp server for Solaris and use zones, rather than find the right server for your web/mail/IM servers.
If you want a well supported, high quality, highly scalable solution, look at "Sun Java Webserver 7" and "Sun Communications Suite 7", they're what I use and it's great stuff. Otherwise apache, postfix and jabberd should run well on Solaris. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
